Disappointed - Not the company I expected and not the one I hired into - Anonymous employee Motorola Solutions Employee Review

The excellent pay is required to keep what talent they can. Motorola does not respect engineering talent. They do respect an incompetent middle management and a vastly over rated upper management. The company has gone from 160k a decade ago to a tenth of that size, yet the management salaries are the same. Motorola has made a series of missteps in recent years (Iridium, Aspira, missing the digital telecom revolution, building the Harvard Plant... many, many others. This was due to a lack of strategic management and a belief Brownian Motion (pun intended) will create a new product every time an old drops. If this did work Management would be unnecessary. As it does not, the current management should be replaced with innovators and visionaries. Motorola also has a bizarre review process that alone is a reason to avoid this company.
